Visit Olden Community Garden on Saturday 7th June, 11am-4pm for our London Open Gardens (LOG) day. Enjoy tea and biscuits beside the lawn and walk in the woodland. A Weekend LOG ticket also lets you visit Arvon Road Allotments and Quill Street Allotments, as well as many other gardens not normally open to the public.

Over 150 visitors came to our National Garden Scheme (NGS) Open Garden day to enjoy our spring bulbs and blossom, and tea and cake. We raised over £1,000 for NGS charities.

Our new vegetable beds are flourishing, following completion of the project funded by our NGS Community Garden Grant to repair the terracing. The Earthlings are preparing the beds, planting and watering. They have planted red and white onions, shallots, broad beans, purple kale, cavolo nero, rainbow chard, leeks, spring onions, beetroot, carrots, artichoke.

We have completed the project to construct our new vegetable terracing using reclaimed oak wood railway sleepers, funded with the our NGS Community Garden Grant. Volunteers filled the veg beds with the appropriate mix of re-purposed earth and leaf compost, together with manure from Freightliners Farm – all ready for veg planting by the Olden Garden Earthlings.

Everyone welcome at Olden Garden – come and enjoy spring flowers and blossom, and tea and cake, during our NGS Open Gardens Day on Sunday 6th April, 2pm-5pm
